# Pass values from Secrets to `extra_settings`
Currently, AWX Operator does not ability to inject Secrets to `extra_settings`.
However, since Secrets are injectable for environment variables, we can indirectly inject values from Secrets into `extra_settings` by specifying values that refers to the environment variables.

## Concept
Since the values for `extra_settings` will be embedded as Python code into `settings.py`, we can use any python code as values for `extra_settings`. So the key concepts are:
- Add environment variables for both task and web pod with `valueFrom` to inject values from Secrets to environment variables.
- Specify `os.getenv()` in values for `extra_settings`.
## Simple examples
This is a simple example to inject values from Secrets to `extra_settings`.
```yaml
---
apiVersion: awx.ansible.com/v1beta1
kind: AWX
metadata:
name: awx
spec:
...
# Add new environment variables with "valueFrom" to task pod
task_extra_env: |
- name: AZUREAD_OAUTH2_KEY
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: awx-azuread-oauth2-secret
key: key
- name: AZUREAD_OAUTH2_SECRET
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: awx-azuread-oauth2-secret
key: secret
# Completely the same environment variables should be added to web pod
web_extra_env: |
- name: AZUREAD_OAUTH2_KEY
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: awx-azuread-oauth2-secret
key: key
- name: AZUREAD_OAUTH2_SECRET
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: awx-azuread-oauth2-secret
key: secret
# Specify "os.getenv()" that refers environment variables that newly added above
extra_settings:
- setting: SOCIAL_AUTH_AZUREAD_OAUTH2_KEY
value: os.getenv("AZUREAD_OAUTH2_KEY")
- setting: SOCIAL_AUTH_AZUREAD_OAUTH2_SECRET
value: os.getenv("AZUREAD_OAUTH2_SECRET")
```
## Complex examples
This is an example to inject values from Secrets as a part of Dictionary. The Dictionary should be passed as multi-line strings.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> If we want to pass multi-line strings including `os.getenv()` as values for `extra_settings`, indentation have to be noted since the values will be embedded into ConfigMap that templated by Jinja, and ConfigMap has 4 spaces indentation per lines. We must not destroy the indentation of the ConfigMap.
```yaml
---
apiVersion: awx.ansible.com/v1beta1
kind: AWX
metadata:
name: awx
spec:
...
# Add new environment variables with "valueFrom" to task pod
task_extra_env: |
- name: SAML_IDP_SIGNING_CERT
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: awx-saml-idp-signing-cert
key: x509cert
# Completely the same environment variables should be added to web pod
web_extra_env: |
- name: SAML_IDP_SIGNING_CERT
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: awx-saml-idp-signing-cert
key: x509cert
# Specify "os.getenv()" that refers environment variables that newly added above
extra_settings:
- setting: SOCIAL_AUTH_SAML_ENABLED_IDPS
# Define value as multi-line strings with 2 spaces indentation (by "|2"),
# then pass the actual value with 6 spaces indentation
# to add 4 leading spaces for each lines to keep indentation in ConfigMap correctly
value: |2
{
"saml_ms_adfs": {
"x509cert": os.getenv("SAML_IDP_SIGNING_CERT"),
"attr_last_name": "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/surname",
"attr_first_name": "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/givenname",
"attr_email": "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/emailaddress",
"attr_username": "name_id",
"attr_user_permanent_id": "name_id",
"entity_id": "https://adfs.domain.com/adfs/services/trust",
"url": "https://adfs.domain.com/adfs/ls",
}
}
```
This will generate following ConfigMap. As you can see, to include all lines into under `settings`, 4 spaces indentation is important.
```yaml
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
...
data:
...
settings: |
import os
import socket
...
SOCIAL_AUTH_SAML_ENABLED_IDPS = {
"saml_ms_adfs": {
"x509cert": os.getenv("SAML_IDP_SIGNING_CERT"),
"attr_last_name": "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/surname",
"attr_first_name": "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/givenname",
"attr_email": "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/emailaddress",
"attr_username": "name_id",
"attr_user_permanent_id": "name_id",
"entity_id": "https://adfs.domain.com/adfs/services/trust",
"url": "https://adfs.domain.com/adfs/ls",
}
}
```
> [!TIP]
> If you don't want to care about indentation, alternatively it is also possible to pass a Dictionary on a single line, as long as it follows Python syntax.
> [!TIP]
> The above example assumes that the certificate is stored in secret as a single line of text data, not including line breaks, headers, or footers.
>
> ```bash
> kubectl -n awx create secret generic awx-saml-idp-signing-cert \
> --from-literal=x509cert=MIIDZTCC........6xGPxz26
> ```
>
> If your secrets contains whole the certificate, you can use `replace()` after `getenv()`, to remove line breaks, headers, and footers.
>
> ```python
> "x509cert": os.getenv("SAML_IDP_SIGNING_CERT").replace("\n", "").replace("-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----", "").replace("-----END CERTIFICATE----", ""),
> ```
## Appendix: Add extra settings by mounting settings files instead of using `extra_settings`
If you have a lot of settings to add, or want to pass dictionaries or lists, it might be hard to maintain them in `extra_settings`.
In that case, you can create settings files as pure Python code and mount them under `/etc/tower/conf.d` directory on the task and web pods, since AWX reads any `*.py` files in `/etc/tower/conf.d` directory as settings files on its start up.
### Add extra settings by mounting ConfigMap
This is an example `extra_settings.py` file that contain multiple extra settings.
```python
AD_HOC_COMMANDS = [
"command",
"shell",
"yum",
"apt",
"apt_key",
"apt_repository",
"apt_rpm",
"service",
"group",
"user",
"mount",
"ping",
"selinux",
"setup",
"win_ping",
"win_service",
"win_updates",
"win_group",
"win_user",
]
AWX_ISOLATION_SHOW_PATHS = [
"/etc/pki/ca-trust:/etc/pki/ca-trust:O",
"/usr/share/pki:/usr/share/pki:O",
]
AWX_TASK_ENV = {
"HTTPS_PROXY": "http://proxy.example.com:3128",
"HTTP_PROXY": "http://proxy.example.com:3128",
"NO_PROXY": "127.0.0.1,localhost,.example.com",
}
GALAXY_TASK_ENV = {
"ANSIBLE_FORCE_COLOR": "false",
"GIT_SSH_COMMAND": "ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no"
}
```
Create a ConfigMap with above `extra_settings.py` file.
```bash
kubectl -n awx create configmap awx-extra-settings-configmap --from-file=extra_settings.py
```
Then, mount the ConfigMap to the task and web pods.
```yaml
---
apiVersion: awx.ansible.com/v1beta1
kind: AWX
metadata:
name: awx
spec:
...
extra_volumes: |
- name: awx-extra-settings
configMap:
name: awx-extra-settings-configmap
items:
- key: extra_settings.py
path: extra_settings.py
task_extra_volume_mounts: |
- name: awx-extra-settings
mountPath: /etc/tower/conf.d/extra_settings.py
subPath: extra_settings.py
web_extra_volume_mounts: |
- name: awx-extra-settings
mountPath: /etc/tower/conf.d/extra_settings.py
subPath: extra_settings.py
```
### Refer sensitive values from Secrets from the settings files
If you want to embed the values from Secrets into the settings files, you can use `os.getenv()` in `extra_settings.py` as well.
```python
import os
...
SOCIAL_AUTH_AZUREAD_OAUTH2_KEY = os.getenv("AZUREAD_OAUTH2_KEY")
SOCIAL_AUTH_AZUREAD_OAUTH2_SECRET = os.getenv("AZUREAD_OAUTH2_SECRET")
SOCIAL_AUTH_SAML_ENABLED_IDPS = {
"saml_ms_adfs": {
"x509cert": os.getenv("SAML_IDP_SIGNING_CERT"),
...
}
}
```
```yaml
---
apiVersion: awx.ansible.com/v1beta1
kind: AWX
metadata:
name: awx
spec:
...
task_extra_env: |
- name: AZUREAD_OAUTH2_KEY
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: awx-azuread-oauth2-secret
key: key
- name: AZUREAD_OAUTH2_SECRET
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: awx-azuread-oauth2-secret
key: secret
- name: SAML_IDP_SIGNING_CERT
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: awx-saml-idp-signing-cert
key: x509cert
web_extra_env: |
- name: AZUREAD_OAUTH2_KEY
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: awx-azuread-oauth2-secret
key: key
- name: AZUREAD_OAUTH2_SECRET
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: awx-azuread-oauth2-secret
key: secret
- name: SAML_IDP_SIGNING_CERT
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: awx-saml-idp-signing-cert
key: x509cert
extra_volumes: |
- name: awx-extra-settings
configMap:
name: awx-extra-settings-configmap
items:
- key: extra_settings.py
path: extra_settings.py
task_extra_volume_mounts: |
- name: awx-extra-settings
mountPath: /etc/tower/conf.d/extra_settings.py
subPath: extra_settings.py
web_extra_volume_mounts: |
- name: awx-extra-settings
mountPath: /etc/tower/conf.d/extra_settings.py
subPath: extra_settings.py
```
### Embed sensitive values directly into the settings files
Alternatively, if you want to embed sensitive values into the settings files directly, you can store `extra_settings.py` as a Secret instead of a ConfigMap.
```python
import os
...
SOCIAL_AUTH_AZUREAD_OAUTH2_KEY = "****************"
SOCIAL_AUTH_AZUREAD_OAUTH2_SECRET = "****************"
SOCIAL_AUTH_SAML_ENABLED_IDPS = {
"saml_ms_adfs": {
"x509cert": "MIIDZTCC........6xGPxz26",
...
}
}
```
```bash
kubectl -n awx create secret generic awx-extra-settings-secret --from-file=extra_settings.py
```
```yaml
---
apiVersion: awx.ansible.com/v1beta1
kind: AWX
metadata:
name: awx
spec:
...
extra_volumes: |
- name: awx-extra-settings
secret:
secretName: awx-extra-settings-secret
items:
- key: extra_settings.py
path: extra_settings.py
task_extra_volume_mounts: |
- name: awx-extra-settings
mountPath: /etc/tower/conf.d/extra_settings.py
subPath: extra_settings.py
web_extra_volume_mounts: |
- name: awx-extra-settings
mountPath: /etc/tower/conf.d/extra_settings.py
subPath: extra_settings.py
```
